I don't think the debate mattered at all in terms of winning votes or whatever, but it did push me further towards the conclusion that 1) Trump will insist he won the election regardless of the results, and 2) he'll probably get away with it, and Democrats won't do shit.
They don't really have the infrastructure to truly rig the vote, but they'll have everything from fascist militias on the streets to overwhelming control of the federal judiciary. Fully expect Trump to still be in office on January 21st.
Joe stumbles and stops ("I yield my time", fucking hell), Trump just plows on, repeating himself and occasionally discovering new words to say. He usually manages to sound like a normal idiot instead of someone with a genuine cognitive problem. Much better bullshitter.
The ice cream and sunglasses shit has been such a pathetic branding exercise for a senile creep. Huge democrat consultant energy, very embarrassing.
Also I've started seeing positive Joe Biden comments on Twitter from people who really should know better, and it's driving me insane. I'm just praying that he starts babbling nonsense during the debate so they'll regain some sense of shame.
After the confirmation of Kavanaugh, any non-reactionary should hold the Supreme Court in utter contempt. The court is a joke, and laws are fake. What happens next will only accelerate the decline of its popular legitimacy.
No idea what happens after that, though. It's not like the Democrats are in a position to push for any flavor of radical change.
Oh yeah I never really liked the results of its plate tectonics simulation. I feel like you get more natural-looking terrain with simpler, faster noise algorithms. It's still the best piece of software of that type, as far as I know.
The court is already lost! It's the dumbest argument for Biden. The oldest Republican-aligned justice could easily cling on for another 15-20 years.
I swear I'm getting flashbacks to the mid-2000s Daily Kos strategy of "just elect better Democrats". It's dead, it never really worked except at the margins, it's glacially slow even in the most optimistic scenarios. You have to find a different approach.
I think it's important to understand that this is not new. It's pretty constant. I remember looking at polling data from the 90s and realizing that 20-25% of Americans are basically proud racists, which is a strong indicator that they have openly fascist beliefs across the board.
Eh. There's a little bit of Trump which would actually like to cling on to power I guess, but mostly he says shit like this so he'll be able to whine about how everyone was very unfair to him until the day he dies.
"dopamine hit" is the dumbest shit
